Summary of form & texture perception coding of spatial features Evidences of SA 1 specialization for the representation of spatial information: n SA 1 responses to stimulus elements on a surface are independent of the force of application. n SA 1 -receptive fields grow minimally (relative to RA receptive fields) with increasing indentation depth. n SA 1 afferents possess a response property, surround suppression, which confers response properties similar to those produced by surround inhibition in the central nervous system. This response property is a consequence of sensitivity to strain energy density, not a synaptic mechanism. n SA 1 spatial resolution is affected minimally by changes in scanning velocity at velocities up to at least 80 mm s– 1. n SA 1 afferents are at least ten times more sensitive to dynamic than to static stimuli. n SA 1 responses to repeated skin indentation are practically invariant: the variability is about one impulse per trial regardless of the number of action potentials evoked. n The RA system has greater sensitivity but poorer spatial resolution and 15 limited dynamic range.

Summary of vibrotactile perception - coding of temporal features P channel n intense filtering (at nearly 60 d. B per decade) of low-frequency stimuli n respond to stimuli less than 100– 150 Hz with a phase-locked, Poisson discharge, therefore a whole population firing randomly but at a rate proportional to the instantaneous stimulus amplitude can represent the stimulus waveform accurately RA channel n RA neurons of S 1, like their afferent fibers, fire periodically, in phase with mechanical oscillations n RA neurons modulate their firing rates as a function of the stimulus frequency n Flutter is encoded by firing rate of RA neurons 20
